Hi, I've been trying to update my forum avatar on all 7 of the projects I'm currently attached to but it won't accept the changes. I select the do not use an avatar option and then select the use uploaded avatar and browse to the new image but the old one still shows up. I think it may be a bug with the new server software cause it worked fine on the old version. |

Try with emptying your browser cache. Your avatar, as I see it ATM, is a photograph showing you(?) with a black t-shirt, holding up a glass, and some curtained window in the background. :-)= Greybeard All about BOINC: BOINC-Wiki (by Paul D. Buck) ![]() |

I select the do not use an avatar option and then select the use uploaded avatar and browse to the new image but the old one still shows up. If I read the above correctly you need to select the USE an AVATAR upload BUTTON....Ok just looked at the preferences and you are doing it correctly lol to early need coffee..... Are you using JPEG or PNGs? I noticed in the pass that it would take any where from a few minutes to days for The avatar to change.... And the beat goes on Sonny and Cher BOINC Wiki ![]() |
